CLOSED: Is Victoria Starving?

Have you noticed that there are no IV's hooked up to Victoria? Granted, this is soapland, but how is she and the baby getting food and nutrients?

They can feed people who are unable to eat either intravenously, or through a tube that goes through the nose or mouth, down to the stomache, or is inserted directly into the stomache. But it doesn't appear as if Victoria has any tubes coming out of her anywhere.

Gee...now that you mention it, your right, I haven't seen any "tubes". I DO work in healthcare and although I am shocked that there isn't SOME kind of tubes (for oxygen etc) perhaps she has a feeding tube that goes directly to the stomache (that we wouldn't see, unless you lift up her gown). They are called PEG tubes. When they go thru the nose they are called N-G Tubes. I wonder why therapy hasn't been involved to keep her "limber" and to do range of motion....... interesting......all the little details....
